Correct! There's a herd of mouflons on a farm near me. And this one was acting weird so I took a picture.

Dam, didn't look like a mouflon as the light coloured patches on it's sides didn't seem prominant enough. Many sheep and goats have an extra pad on their front elbows (knees to most folk) that acts like an extra hoof pad, this means they can "kneel" like in your picture to graze on short vegitation without hurting themselves. (Could also be an adaptaition for very steep hills like the two shorter legs on one side of wild scottish haggis so they can run around hills easier.)

What sort of tree is the big tree in this picture?
